Jasjam Touch ?

Hi.
I'm new user here... and a newbie with ppc.
I Was wondering...
Do you think that by changing the Hermes LCD to HTC TOUCH LCD, will make Hermes be more sensitive to finger touch ?
Or maybe it will not work at all ?

If this is just theory, I really dont think that changing the lcds will help in sensitivity as the touch is basically a jasjam without the slideout keyboard. as to whether it will work or not, chances are it will (keep in mind it needs to fit and cables need to be compatable) but I'm not going to experiment on my $1000 baby....Cheers

Touch only works in portrait mode

Hi, i have quite a strange problem. On my MDA vario the touch screen only registers touch when the phone is closed. As soon as i start to slide it open (before the screen turns to landscape) the touch registration already stops working.
I've already tried different roms, and currently use Windows Mobile 6.1, but it doesn't really seem to help.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Thanks,
Steven

The ribbon touchscreen ribbon cable could be damaged or has partially came of the board.
you will need to dismantle the phone and check the cable, note that its soldered and can be tricky to resolder.

auto screen rotation

does any one kows any software for auto screen rotation for htc touch dual?
thanks on advance.

Sorry, but for have the auto rotating screen, you must have the accelerometer (sorry, i dont know if in english is exact) wich is an hardware piece.

you need hardware for that , not software
Im guessing you wanted to make it like the iphone

Why iPhone? There's not just the iPhone whit this feature!
By the way, i wonder if its possible to install an accelerometer on a phone who doesn't have it.

yeah... not just iphone that have this feature. also available in HTC Diamond, Touch Pro and Touch HD.
Mobile phones nowadays are coming out with accelerometers built in, which is basically a device built into the phone that “tells” the phone which way it is being held up, down, left, right, moving etc.
Accelerometer is not a piece of software, it's a component inside the phone. So, if u guys need one, change to one of the phone that I mentioned earlier.

Touch screen problem

I have serious problem with my o2 xda mini s pda.
After I buy this pda touch screen work perfectly but after few uses touch screen stop work or work sporadically in landscape. I started to seatch for a sollution. I found that the flex cable can be damaged for long time use but in addiotion the all screen can stop work correctly after dagmage this flex cable (my screen work good - no trail or something).
Now the touch screen stop response for any touch (potrair or landscape).
My question is what can i do ? Can anybody tell me what is the faulty part (flex cable or touch layer) ? Maybe there is other option...
Sorry for my english

Anyone heard of Pocketshield software?

Stumbled across this today and it looks like it could be useful. For those who haven't heard of it, it's a bit of software that autolocks the phone when in your pocket or in a bag then it becomes active when you take it out. It does this by using the light sensor on the phone.
It says on the website that it is available for the Touch HD and Diamond but has not been tested on a Touch 3G yet.
Does anyone know if the OS is the same on the 3G. i.e. Should it work if it does on the other HTC phones as I might be interested in getting it as I find locking it manually a bit of a bind.
Looks like it has other features as well such as shake to answer and themes.
Have a look and let me know what you think:

some features might not work on touch 3g as this phone does not have a movement sensor...

Besides, it's only for vga screen, 3G is qvga screen.
